Chapter Seventy-One: First Meeting
Early this morning, Shen Yin got up early. After two days of rest and recuperation, her cough finally stopped. The snow in the yard had melted, and she noticed that it was a little brighter than usual outside.
She painted her makeup, wore the newly bought blue lace dress and a dark blue coat to the yard, where her mother-in-law was exercising, "Are you going now?" Haven't eaten breakfast yet? ”
"Mom, I'll eat when I get there, it's too late." She looked at the time, and half an hour had passed since Su Yuqian's call.
"Stay safe on your way!" Her mother-in-law helped her fix her hair hidden in a scarf.
"Well, it's cold outside, get in when you're done exercising."
Shen Yin got on the electric car and rushed in the direction of Su Yuqian's house. On the road, the biting cold wind whistled past her ears, and even though she wore velvet gloves, she couldn't withstand the gusts of cold wind, so she drove a little slower, and it had already taken forty minutes to get to Su Yuqian's house.
"Shen Yin, you came so early, come in quickly, it's cold outside." Su's mother greeted her warmly, and Su's father helped her push the electric car to the carport.
Su Mu held her hand and asked happily, "You see that your hands are cold, and you haven't eaten breakfast yet, right?" She held Shen Yin's hand and kept covering it.
Shen Yin smiled embarrassedly.
"Don't be polite to your aunt, I made eggplant cakes, eight-treasure porridge and fritters, and I can eat some of them." Su Mu had already pulled her into the living room.
Su Yuqian came out of the room in her pajamas, and was very happy to see her, "Shen Yin, you are finally here, sit down and taste the eggplant cake made by my mother, remember that you used to eat it cutely." ”
After they finished eating, Su Yuqian pulled her to the bedroom and picked up the two dresses on the bed, "You help me take a look, which one looks good in these two clothes?" ”
Shen Yin could see that she was still in good shape after giving birth, and her skin was fairer and more mature and feminine. She pointed to one of the long red dresses, "This one is more festive and suits the mood of today." ”
Su Yuqian smiled, "I have already married once, and now in the face of this kind of scene, my mood is no longer what I used to be." ”
"Didn't a man say that?" Everyone should be married twice. Once at a very young age and again in middle age. If you don't get married once when you're young, you won't learn to be good when you're middle-aged, and there is no happy marriage in the world without hard work. Although this sentence is too absolute, it makes sense when you think about it. Shen Yin pulled her to the mirror and held the red dress, "Look, how beautiful!" ”
"Thank you, Shen Yin, if you hadn't been with me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to hold on a long time ago." Su Yuqian hugged her, teary eyes.
"Oops, it's not good to have swollen eyes, today you are the protagonist, you must be beautiful." Shen Yin wiped away her tears, "I'll put on makeup for you, dress you up beautifully, and dominate the audience." ”
At ten o'clock, the person who came to pick up the relatives came, Song Yixi was wearing a navy blue suit, holding flowers and walking towards Su Yuqian, with a happy smile on his face.
Su's mother hugged Shanchen, and Shanchen saw them laughing and clapping his hands, shouting "Dad, Mom." ”
Xue Ting and several junior high school classmates came, Xue Ting stood beside her and whispered in her ear, "Why don't you see your husband?" Isn't he coming? ”
Only then did she realize that Wang Mengliang had not appeared yet, and she smiled: "He will come, but he will go directly to the hotel." ”
Song Yisheng carried Su Yuqian into the car, and she sat in the same car with Su's mother and Su's father. As soon as Su's mother got into the car, she cried, and Su's father held her hand and comforted Su's mother. "Now that Qian'er is married, the 'big stone' in your heart has also fallen, be happy today, send our blessings to Qian'er, she will face it alone in the future, we have to support her."
"That being said, I still feel very bad in my heart, this child has to be strong since she was a child, she can come out, and I am happy for her." Su's mother wiped her tears, "We want to be happy to watch her get married." ”
At about half past ten, the sun was shining through the clouds, and the light snow, which had been falling for two days, had disappeared under the light of a few minutes, and she actually dozed off in the back seat.
Xue Ting sat up straight, patted her shoulder and said, "It's still early, you sleep here first, I'll call you when it's almost time." ”
She leaned on Xue Ting's shoulder and fell asleep in a daze.
She had a dream in which she went back to her childhood. She was sitting on the steps next to the basketball hoop in her school uniform reading a novel when she suddenly felt the clothes on her back be ripped off. She turned her head and saw Wang Mengliang wearing a school uniform of another color, with a basketball in the crook of her left arm, and said to her with a smile: "Classmate, it's very dangerous here, you better sit over there." He pointed to a flower bed not far away, "You can see the scenery from there, and it's safe." ”
"Ah...... I'm sorry. She hurriedly packed her schoolbag, and was about to leave when he stopped her.
"Classmate, your shoelaces are loose."
She lowered her head, looked at her shoelaces in embarrassment, and was about to squat down to tie her shoelaces.
Wang Mengliang had already squatted down, put the basketball at his feet, and tied it for her.
"Be careful when you walk in the future!" He smiled at her, warmly.
Xue Ting shook her arm, "Shen Yin, it's here, wake up." ”
When she opened her eyes, the car was already in the parking lot.
Xue Ting pulled her into the elevator and said with a wicked smile: "What dream did you have just now, I saw that you were laughing all the time." ”
"How can there be a dream? Your shoulders are so stiff, my face is stiff when I lean on it. She pretended to rub her face to avoid Xue Ting's inquiring gaze.
She forgets that their first encounter took place in the spring of the year she was in sixth grade. It was a sunny day at noon, and a county-wide speech contest was to be held on the playground of this junior high school, and the contestants were all representatives from all primary schools in the county, and she was the representative of the Fengwan Village Primary School. Since Fengwan Village is only two kilometers away from Nanba County Junior High School, Shen Yin came earlier than the other contestants. She has written well since she was a child, participated in several speech contests, but never spoke in front of her seniors. This time, she was very nervous, running around the unfamiliar playground, she gasped for breath, her body tired concealed this uneasiness, but once she calmed down, the uneasiness and nervousness permeated every pore of her body.
She kept taking deep breaths, took out "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" from her school bag and began to read, she thought, maybe she would slowly forget when she entered the colorful world described in this book. Just as she was concentrating on reading, she was interrupted by Wang Mengliang.
She had never seen such a handsome boy, his handsome eyebrows and eyes looked very sunny with a hairy hairstyle, the zipper of his school uniform was open, revealing a beautiful collarbone, ten slender fingers, well-defined bones, brass skin was more manly, his body exuded a faint smell of soap, and he was wearing a pair of white sneakers. He's definitely the one who stands out from his peers.
She was speechless for a moment, and she was speechless in front of him.
When he helped her tie her shoes, she only said two words - thank you.
After the speech contest began, she sat in the lounge area, and the homeroom teacher kept chattering beside her to give her some precautions, while her eyes were always on the audience below, trying to see the boy below. Scanning the room, she found that many boys had these characteristics of that boy, and it was not easy to find him.
Until she finished her speech, she didn't have the slightest nervousness.
